Maxi Suds II Cherry Car Wash Soap - Thick Foam for Hand and Foam Cannon Wash
MaxiSuds Car Wash Soap from Chemical Guys
The original high-foaming maintenance shampoo is built for hand washes, foam cannons, and foam guns. Gloss-enhancing concentrated formula whips into thick suds that lubricate dirt and lift road film off paint, glass, and trim - safer, scratch-free washes on cars, trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles.
Concentrated Car Shampoo - 1 to 2 Ounces Per Wash Bucket Goes a Long Way
Concentrated soap means fewer bottles, more washes. Add 1 to 2 ounces of Maxi Suds II to 4 to 5 gallons of water in a wash bucket, or 1 to 2 ounces in a foam cannon or foam gun. One 16 oz bottle stretches across dozens of maintenance washes, high value for daily drivers and weekend show cars.
Gloss Enhancing Wash Boosts Shine on Wax, Sealant, and Ceramic Coated Paint
Built-in gloss enhancers leave paint brighter and more reflective after every rinse. Slick polymer-rich suds glide across clear coat without stripping wax, paint sealant, or ceramic coatings - your last layer of protection stays where you put it. Pairs with Butter Wet Wax, JetSeal, and HydroSlick.
pH Balanced Car Wash Safe for Paint, Glass, Wheels, Vinyl Wraps, and Trim
A pH-balanced wash matters. Maxi Suds II cleans without aggressive chemistry, safe on paintwork, glass, plastic, rubber, stainless steel, aluminum, vinyl wraps, and matte finishes. Pair with the two-bucket wash method, a Cyclone Dirt Trap, and a chenille wash mitt for swirl-free results.
Extreme Cherry Blast Scent Makes Every Foam Cannon Wash a Detailing Day
Detailing should be fun. The signature Extreme Cherry Blast scent fills the driveway with a sweet, juicy aroma the moment you crack the bottle turning a routine wash into something the neighbors notice. Use with a TORQ foam cannon, a Foam Blaster 6 foam gun, or a classic two-bucket setup.
New Look Bottle With Even More Foam Per Ounce of Concentrated Wash
The fan-favorite original is back with a refreshed bottle and an even foamier formula. Same trusted Maxi Suds chemistry, same gloss-enhancing polymers, same pH-balanced safety reformulated to deliver thicker, longer-lasting foam per ounce. The wash detailers have trusted for over two decades.
Is Maxi Suds II safe to use on a ceramic-coated car?
Yes. Maxi Suds II is pH-balanced and free of harsh degreasers, so it cleans without stripping ceramic coatings, sealants, or carnauba wax. The gloss enhancers actually amplify the hydrophobic shine of your existing coating between top-ups.
Can I use Maxi Suds II in a foam cannon or foam gun?
Absolutely. Add 1 to 2 ounces to a foam cannon on a pressure washer, or 1 to 2 ounces in a foam gun on a garden hose, then top off with water. The concentrated formula produces thick, clinging suds that dwell long enough to lift dirt safely.
How much soap do I use for a two-bucket hand wash?
Add 1 to 2 ounces of Maxi Suds II to 4 to 5 gallons of clean water in your wash bucket and activate suds with a strong stream from the hose. Use a separate rinse bucket with a Cyclone Dirt Trap or grit guard to protect paint.
Will the cherry scent stain or harm light-colored paint or vinyl wraps?
No. The Extreme Cherry Blast scent is fragrance only - it adds aroma but contains no dyes or chemicals that can stain or damage surfaces. Safe on white paint, light vinyl wraps, matte finishes, glass, plastic, rubber, stainless steel, and aluminum.
How does Maxi Suds II compare to HydroSuds Ceramic Car Wash Soap?
Maxi Suds II is the classic high-foaming shampoo built for thick suds, gloss, and safe everyday washing. HydroSuds adds SiO2 ceramic technology that bonds with paint for hydrophobic protection. Maxi Suds is for cleaning, HydroSuds to add ceramic.
